Refrigeration industry and the future of refrigeration engineers

People’s lives have been improved, so Vietnam’s refrigeration industry is growing, and the demand for human resources is increasing. Let’s take a closer look at the refrigeration industry and the future of refrigeration engineers after graduation. We invite you to take a look at the following information collected by The College of Science and Technology!

How do students in refrigeration engineering get trained?

When studying refrigeration at universities and colleges, you will be trained in general knowledge of electricity and in-depth refrigeration. Specifically, you will learn basic electrical techniques in general, then continue to learn general and in-depth knowledge of refrigeration and industrial refrigeration techniques. After graduating from the refrigeration industry, students must be able to participate in the design of refrigeration systems at companies, factories, private houses, etc. In addition, works related to refrigeration can also be carried out such as maintenance, repair, improvement and upgrading of industrial refrigeration systems.

If you want to study refrigeration and want to pursue a job as a refrigeration engineer, you can refer to some of the following universities:

  • In the Southern area:

Ho Chi Minh City University of Technology, Ho Chi Minh City University of Industry, Ho Chi Minh City College of Engineering and Technology, Ninh Thuan Vocational College, Binh Duong Technical Tourism College, Hung Vuong Technical and Technology Vocational College, etc.

  • In the Northern area:

Hanoi University of Industry, Hung Yen University of Technical Education, The College of Science and Technology, etc.

The job opportunities and working environment of a refrigeration engineer

The job of the Refrigeration Engineer is to ensure the refrigeration machinery systems of agencies, companies, and businesses are operating well, economically and reasonably. Detect and handle arising problems such as broken machinery, poor operation. Schedule maintenance, periodic maintenance of machinery… As well as design refrigeration systems for large and small construction projects from private houses, shops to companies and factories.

To do this job well, engineers need to have good professional knowledge of electrical engineering in general and refrigeration engineering in particular. In particular, good practice experience is required. Therefore, wanting to do well in this industry requires engineers to constantly tinker with self-study and have a passion for the profession. Students who study refrigeration, if they do not practice hard, they will find it difficult to get a good knowledge after graduation. Good engineers need to know how to handle special problems as quickly as possible to avoid causing losses to the business. Need to know how to design smart refrigeration systems, optimize utility usage, and save costs.

Working environment of refrigeration engineers can be agencies, enterprises, private factories, state, foreign enterprises. Especially, enterprises that manufacture products, have a large system of factories and workshops, need a whole team of refrigeration engineers to design the system, to ensure the smooth operation of the system 24/24. Engineers must always closely monitor the operating system through electronic software as well as direct observations and reflections of others in the company. Fulfill other requirements of business management.

Opportunities for Refrigeration Engineers

The demand for human resources in the refrigeration industry is very large, especially when the industrial zones develop, the larger the number of large enterprises in Vietnam. Not only companies and businesses use refrigeration equipment, but also how businesses manufacture and distribute these devices. Refrigeration engineers can study in many countries and work in countries with a more developed refrigeration industry than Vietnam. The opportunity to settle in a foreign country is quite large like Australia, the refrigeration profession is on the list of sponsored occupations.

Therefore, as long as they have real capacity, Vietnamese refrigeration engineers have a lot of opportunities to devote, develop their careers, and increase their income. Of course, this profession requires engineers to be passionate, quick and have a real passion for the profession.
